The 1849-D quarter eagle is not often seen above AU53 to AU55. There are at most five or six known in Uncirculated with the finest of the grading MS62.

This is a famous coin, with a pedigree stretching back to the 1980's when it was acquired by the owner of the famous North Georgia collection. It is housed in an older pre-barcode holder and it seems undergraded by a full point by today's standards. It is a truly "new" coin with full luster and pleasing green-gold and russet toning over frosty, unabraded surfaces.

This is the only PCGS MS60 1849-D quarter eagle to sell at auction; see below for pedigree information.

Here is the chance to own a famous example of a conditionally rare Dahlonega quarter eagle.
